Subject: RE: Lyr Req: All is Well
I'd like to find a copy of the Sacred harp version to campare with the one I have, but I still have this memory of a tradition that the original tue was "An English Drinking Song". does anyone know a good source for such things that I could compare to the meter of the tune? I know that "the Church" has made a practice of appropriating secular music for it's own use for centuries, and was hoping to revive the secular version.
